Note 22 — Second Part.

Suidas, s. v. μυσάχνη, ἡ πόρνη παρὰ Ἀρχιλόχῳ· καὶ ἐργάτις καὶ δῆμος καὶ παχεῖα. Ἱππῶναξ δὲ βορβορόπιν καὶ ἀκάθαρτον ταύτην φησίν. ἀπὸ τοῦ βορβόρου καὶ ἀνασυρτόπολιν, ἀπὸ τοῦ ἀνασύρεσθαι. Ἀνακρέων δὲ πανδοσίαν καὶ λεωφόρον, καὶ μανιόκηπον· κῆπος γὰρ τὸ μόριον. Εὔπολις εἰλίποδα, ἐκ τῆς εἰλήσεως τῶν ποδῶν τῆς κατὰ τὴν μίξιν. (under the word μυσάχνη; this means “the prostitute” in Archilochus; also in same sense working-woman, and commonalty, and brawny wench. Also Hipponax calls an unclean woman of the sort filthy-eyed (βορβορόπις) from βόρβορος, mire, and town-exposer ἀνασυρτόπολις from ἀνασύρεσθαι, to pull up the clothes. Also Anacreon uses all-giving and public thoroughfare and mad in the privates (μανιόκηπος); for κῆπος (a garden) means a woman’s private parts. Eupolis uses walking with a rolling gait, from the rolling of the legs, the result of sexual intercourse).
